Privacy Policy for PDFWrench

Last Updated: August 1, 2024

Introduction

Welcome to PDFWrench ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our free browser-based PDF Split & Merge tool (the "Service").

Our core principle is simple: **Your files are your own. We do not want them, see them, or store them.**

Information We Do Not Collect

PDFWrench is designed with your privacy as a priority. We **do not** collect, store, or transmit any personal data or your PDF files.

  • No Personal Data: We do not require you to provide any personal information (like name, email address, etc.) to use our Service.
  • No User Accounts: There are no sign-ups or logins required.
  • No File Uploads to Server: All PDF processing happens entirely within your web browser on your device ("client-side processing"). Your files are never uploaded to, processed on, or stored on our servers or any third-party servers.
  • No File Storage or Sharing: Since files are processed locally, we do not have access to your files, nor do we store or share them with anyone. Once you close your browser tab or navigate away, the processed files (unless downloaded by you) are gone.

How Your Files Are Processed

All PDF manipulation (splitting, merging) is performed directly in your web browser using JavaScript libraries. This means your files remain on your computer throughout the process and are not transmitted over the internet to us.

Third-Party Services (A-ADS)

PDFWrench is monetized via A-ADS (Anonymous Ads). A-ADS is an advertising platform that respects user privacy and does not track users personally or collect personal data to display advertisements.

While A-ADS may display advertisements on our site, these ads are served in a privacy-preserving manner. We do not share any data from your use of PDFWrench with A-ADS. For more information about A-ADS and their privacy practices, you can visit their website.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

PDFWrench **does not use cookies** for its core functionality. We do not employ any tracking technologies, analytics services, or other means to monitor your activity on our site.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
